Who Has a Ruger Single Seven or 327?/

I am getting the gotta buy a gun fever again. Many of you suffer from the same disease. As we all know, there is no cure, but the purchase of a new/different firearm will put us into remission, at least temporarily!!
I love to plink!! I'm old enough that guns that recoil and/or roar don't have the appeal they once had. I'm thinking that a Single Seven, loaded with the 32 H+R mag brass, 85 grain bullets at 900 to 950 fps just might be a great plinking round. Very little recoil, low muzzle blast but still enough power to be able to destroy a dirt clod or bounce a tin can around with vigor. So what say you??

nice thing about the 327 mag or even the 32 H&R is you can shoot the shorter 32 S&W out of them , heck you can even shoot the 32 acp out of a single action as it has enough rim to catch and not drop into the cylinder [;)]
Contacted Ruger and they wanted to examine and make repairs. Received the pistol back in only 3 days and they changed several parts and retuned. I saved the worksheet describing what was done/parts replaced with the receipt in the box.
Performed flawlessly when I got it back. Surprised how this one made it thru QC.

I've got one with the bird's head grip, stainless and 4" bbl. In 327 loadings it has a fair amount of blast, bit of recoil. Would be quite the pleasant plinker in H&R or 32 S&W loadings. A little powder goes a long way, cast bullets are cheap.
I smoothed the heck out of mine. The SA was gritty as hell. Switched out to the Wolf hammer and trigger return spring. Makes it easy as heck to cock and no sacrifice on ignition.
